    I noticed this. I don't use the backlit lights so much, so I turned them off and then when you move the trackpad it doesn't come on. Weird though.

    A question for you (since I haven't seen so many people commenting on this laptop). Do you find the edge to be kind of sharp?? I like to have the laptop on my knee a lot of the time and I find that I feel the edge rubbing against my wrist... :\

    You might get better responses in Ubuntu forums.
